adenosine A3 receptor

Gene Summary

This gene encodes a protein that belongs to the family of adenosine receptors, which are G-protein-coupled receptors that are involved in a variety of intracellular signaling pathways and physiological functions. The receptor encoded by this gene mediates a sustained cardioprotective function during cardiac ischemia, it is involved in the inhibition of neutrophil degranulation in neutrophil-mediated tissue injury, it has been implicated in both neuroprotective and neurodegenerative effects, and it may also mediate both cell proliferation and cell death. This gene shares its 3' terminal exon with a transcript variant from overlapping GeneID:69296, which encodes an immunoglobulin domain-containing protein. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2014]
